First I heard.

Trump does always surprise but we can be pretty sure the candidate will be a female.

Of course is the dems get the next nominee this is the last time we will have a male OR female candidate.

Too young to predict future rulings. She may be john Roberts in skirt or Thomas Clarence in white skin. No way of knowing

Information's too sketchy to endorse wholeheartedly, but she sounds like more of a warrior than that squish (read: functionally liberal) Amy Barrett or the overly-connected (read: corrupt) Barbara Lagoa.

What does she think about stare decisis?

Just looked further into her background. She comes across as conservative as they come at that age. She’s also a Baptist. Some have complained about the lack of Protestant representation on the high court. Well, there ya go!

She’s an advocate of the Alliance Defending Freedom.

She’s a conservative Christian.

She gets my approval.

During Rushing's confirmation proceedings, she was questioned about her ties to the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), a conservative Christian group that she had interned for as a law student. ADF has been criticized for opposing LGBT rights. Rushing was asked if she would recuse herself from ADF-related cases if confirmed. She replied: "I would determine the appropriate action with the input of the parties, consultation of these rules and ethical canons, and consultation with my colleagues."[6] Asked about ADF being labeled a "hate group" by the Southern Poverty Law Center, Rushing said: "Hate is wrong, and it should have no place in our society. In my experience with ADF, I have not witnessed anyone expressing or advocating hate."[6]

On January 3, 2019, her nomination was returned to the President under Rule XXXI, Paragraph 6 of the United States Senate. On January 23, 2019, President Trump announced his intent to renominate Rushing for a federal judgeship.[18] Her nomination was sent to the Senate later that day.[19] On February 7, 2019, her nomination was reported out of committee by a 12–10, party line vote.[20] On March 4, 2019, the Senate invoked cloture on her nomination by a vote of 52–43.[21] On March 5, 2019, the Senate voted to confirm Rushing by a 53–44 vote.[22] She received her judicial commission on March 21, 2019.

On September 9, 2020, President Trump named Rushing as a potential choice to fill a Supreme Court vacancy if one should open. [23] <.i>

I'd prefer this one to the other two gals. I'm one of those that would like to see the country's founding religion represented in the SC. IMHO we don't need another wise latina, one generation away from communism and that whole People of Praise organization is a little weird to me and gives the dems something to harp on.

I’ll keep repeating...the Second Amendment, is the single most important issue, regarding this appointment.
